Cool, cool, I have a couple quick questions -- who's in charge of preventing food-induced illnesses right now and how good a job are they doing?
RFK Jr defends measles: "In 10 years, there have been 3 measles deaths in America. There are now about 1.2 million deaths every year from food-induced illness. The media and certain demagogic politicians are constantly trying to scare us about infectious disease."

I don’t care what side of the aisle you’re on - if your position is that the president of the United States and his family should be immune from IRS scrutiny, you’re unqualified to be the Attorney General.
It’s an indictment on our entire system that 50 GOP Senators don’t agree.

Haitian families deserve certainty, not fear.
While the Supreme Court allowed the Trump Administration to move forward with ending TPS, Congress can still act.
The House passed a bipartisan TPS extension for Haiti. Now, the Senate needs to finish the job.
